Mine-imator crashed and now my project is gone

[mijetboi 0]

So, I was doing my thing and animating, and then Mine-imator crashed. No big deal. But when I got back in, my project was gone. As in, the .miproject file, not just the folder, like deleting a project would usually do. I tried restarting my computer, and it was still gone. So, is there any possible way to fix this, or do i have to start completely from scratch?

Im sorry to tell you this but . . . your project is long gone . . .

This used to happen to me from time to time before, and ever since I save every bit of progress I deem worthy in case a power outage occurs or the app dies randomly.

 

But if you mean the problem in which the file simply stops existing then I don't really know what to do in that situation . . . my bad.

Yeah listen

Open mine imator again and click brows , ooen your project older and change the file type u looking for from .miproject to .backup

U'll mostly find more than one backup file , try them
